Complete this section if <br />property other than cash is exchanged for the <br />obligation, for example, acquiring a police car, <br />a fire truck, or telephone equipment through a <br />series of monthly payments.

For example, report on <br />lines 9i and 9j obligations used to refund prior <br />issues which represent loans from the <br />proceeds of another tax-exempt obligation. <br />Line 9k. Enter on line 9k the amount on line <br />8a that does not represent an obligation <br />described on lines 9a through 9j. <br />Line 10.
